Chapter 88:"HAPPY NEW YEAR!"

-CHARLES-

My family and I are invited to celebrate New year at the Millers.

It is an honour to get inside Special Agent Miller's home. I mean, he is like an inspiration for me.

-Ever since I've worked with him, I noticed how much I admire him. He risks his life for a job and still acts like life is very simple. This man has no fear at all.-

Right now, I'm sitting in the sofa beside my parents, who are talking cheerfully with Mr. and Mrs. Miller.

Creed and Amanda are somewhere else, talking about things I don't understand. -I am left out again.-

"I hope my son isn't bothering you, Heathen." My dad says, although he knows I am not doing anything wrong. -Thanks dad for trusting me this much.-

Mr. Miller smiles and shakes his head.
"No, not at all! He really helps the organisation and me. We've got all the informations and evidences we need. Charles and I talked about some days ago. It is settled. We can finally take down the troublemakers. I can assure you that your son will save tons of people in the future, Kenneth."

I smile as he proudly explains the hard work we've been going through for years.

- Thank God, I have finally found the hidden motive! It shocked me too, but I was already expecting that... It took us so long to find out, since the CIA was wise enough to cover the truth. However, they are just humans too and make mistakes... They forgot one detail and that is, what I've found after several attempts of breaking their code and spying our suspects.-

"No way!" My mom gasps beside me. "Charlie?"

-Darn it. Mom is really careful about stuffs like this and doesn't want me to get involved with hacking. But it's my work ma.-

I internally curse as my dad turns to look at me as well. "I know, I've promised you that I'll stay away from the political things. You think I might be in danger-"

"You are in danger! You brought yourself into this along with us." My dad cuts me off and glares at me with his piercing blue orbs.

-I knew, that he didn't accept it in the first place. He just acted like a supportive dad, but in reality, he's just a show off.-

Mrs. Miller must have noticed that I feel uncomfortable around my parents, cause she gently squeezes my hand. "Your Son is a genius and a blessed child. You really raised him well, Debra."-Atleast someone has my back.-

"I know, but I'm just worried that things might get too hazardous." My mom sighs, while Mrs. Miller tries to comfort her.

I sense Creed and Amanda finally paying attention to us, as they slowly take a sit. -I admit, it bothers me a lot that my brother is close to her.-

"What exactly did you find out?" My old man turns to look at me.

I hate his two-faced side, but in respect I try my best to talk to him. Before I can even inform him, I look over to Mr. MIller for permission. He simply nods at me.

"It's about Mr. Johnson and Mr. Cohen." I sense Amanda staring at me. -Why doesn't that surprise me?-

"The business man and the police officer." My dad says and we nod.

I get distracted by Creed as he points at Amanda. She looks shocked and confused at the same time.

-I knew it. Of course, those dick heads won't tell her the truth. What wise asses they are!-
